Rumors began circulating earlier this week that we’d be seeing the announcement of a new “Batman: Arkham” game, and it turns out they were right! GameInformer has revealed the first details on the game which will be called Batman: Arkham Knight and will see developer Rocksteady return to the franchise.
Set to be released later this year for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One and PC, Batman: Arkham Knight is officially described as follows:
“In the explosive finale to the Arkham series, Batman faces the ultimate threat against the city he is sworn to protect. The Scarecrow returns to unite an impressive roster of super villains, including Penguin, Two-Face and Harley Quinn, to destroy The Dark Knight forever.’
“Batman: Arkham Knight introduces Rocksteady’s uniquely designed version of the Batmobile, which is drivable for the first time in the franchise. The addition of this legendary vehicle, combined with the acclaimed gameplay of the Batman Arkham series, offers gamers the ultimate and complete Batman experience as they tear through the streets and soar across the skyline of the entirety of Gotham City.’
“Be The Batman.”
